… the Trump Transition [#DOD]…

.. some rumors have retired Marine Gen. James Mattis in line for the selection . There are few people that could be a better choice ..

.. Mattis [or , David Petraeus , matter of fact] would have one big problem . Retired military officers have to have been retired for at least 10 years in order to be chosen . A Senate [60 vote] waiver would be required to choose one of these guys ..
